  • scholarly merit and innovative aspects of the project.
  • the possibility for developing the project for external funding.
  • a well-designed plan to achieve the project’s goals.
  • the potential of gaining external recognition for the project team and the university.
  • appropriateness of the budget and schedule in relation to the scope of project.
